There is nothing more that makes a swed feel honor when they walk in a IKEA store in another country. Today I did it, and I did it with pride!
I have ordered two shirts til today so I had to pic them up. They turned out really good and I walked happy from the silkmarket. After that I thought I would eperiance some swedishness so I went to IKEA.
First of all, I can tell you; dont go to IKEA on a saturday afternood. Second; DONT GO TO AN IKEA IN CHINA ON SATURDAY AFTERNOOD! I think it was more people in that store today then my whole contry, but that didnt stoped me to get my mashed potatoes, meatbals and brown sause! I also got a little swedish flag that I saved for later. After that I took a walk in the store. It was almost (only almost) more crowded than the subway here in Beijing but I could see some of the furniture after all. What amazed me was that I saw more than 20 people sleeping in couches, beds and all different kind of places like it was their apartment. I guess that is when two cultures meet…
Happening of the day: IKEA!
